Discretion is the name of the game for Kim Jones’ new Dior Icons capsule collection. Rendered in neutral tones, the collection aims to take wears from casual to formal occasions, with knitwear, denim, soft tailoring, and outerwear featuring throughout.

Each piece has been designed to straddle the boundary between timeless and contemporary, with eminently versatile staples distinguished by their craftsmanship and attention to detail. House codes are subtly woven into the collection, with the colour gray featured on knitwear and the Dior oblique motif emblazoned on the lining of jackets. The maison’s Gallop shoulder bag also makes an appearance; available in a mini version, it features an aluminium buckle that bears the ‘Christian Dior’ signature.
To showcase the collection, the French luxury fashion house has tapped the sempiternally mysterious and somewhat sombre Robert Pattinson. Shot by Alasdair McLellan, the campaign is bathed in natural light and sees Pattinson convey the refined sobriety of the capsule collection.
The Dior Icons capsule collection will be available from the 1st of December via the Dior webstore and in physical boutiques.
